( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) A
Some time ago I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didn’t think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended, as there are a whole lot of antique（古董）shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception. I was quite wrong. The man wouldn’t even look at my chair.
The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth—so I decided that my approach must be wrong.
I entered the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper, “Would you like to buy a chair ” “Twenty pounds,” I said. “OK,” he said. “I’ll give you twenty pounds.” “It’s got a slightly broken leg,” I said. “Yes, I saw that. It’s nothing.”
Everything was going according to the plan and I was getting excited. “What will you do with it ” I asked. “Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done.” “I’ll buy it,” I said. “What do you mean You’ve just sold it to me,” he said. “Yes, I know but I’ve changed my mind. I am sorry. I’ll give you twenty-seven pounds for it.” “You must be crazy,” he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair.” “You’re right,” I said. “And what would you have done if I had walked in and said, ‘Would you mend this chair for me ’” “I wouldn’t have agreed to do it,” he said. “We don’t do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But I’ll mend this for you. Shall we say for a fiver ” He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing.
36. We can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer .
A. was rather impolite B. was warmly received
C. asked the shopkeeper to buy his chair D. asked the shopkeeper to repair his chair
37. The expression “the penny dropped” in the last paragraph means the shopkeeper
A. changed his mind ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) B. accepted the offer
C. saw the writer’s purpose D. decided to help the writer
38. How much d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )id the writer pay
A. ￡5. B. ￡7. C. ￡20. D. ￡27.
39. From the text, we can learn that the writer was .
A. honest B. careful C. smart D. funn
B
Have you eve ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r set a goal for yourself, like getting fit or being picked for a team Like lots of people, maybe you started out doing great, but then lost some of that drive and had trouble getting motivated (激励) again. Everyone struggles with staying motivated and reaching their goals. Just look at how many people go on diets, lose weight, and then gain it back again!
Check in with your goal.
It helps if you writ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e down your small goals in the same way you wrote down your big goal. That way you can follow what you need to do, check off tasks as you finish them, and enjoy knowing that you’re moving toward your big goal. If you’re feeling weak on willpower, you can look at your list to help you change!
Go on with your goal if you slip up (出差错).
If you slip up, don’t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) give up. Forgive yourself and make a plan for getting back on road. Pat yourself on the back for everything you did right. Don’t beat yourself up, no matter how far off track you get. Most people slip up when trying to make a change — it’s a natural part of the process.
Share with a friend.
Another way is having ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) supportive people around you. Having a goal partner can make all the difference in times when you don’t feel motivated. If you’re not getting support from someone when you really need it, you may need to take a break from that friendship and make friends with people who want to help you succeed.
Don’t give up!
Ending an unh ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ealthy behavior or creating a new, exciting one is all about taking responsibility (责任) for our lives. Finding the motivation to do it isn’t easy, but it is always possible. You can stay motivated by writing down your goals, sticking to your plan, and reminding yourself of what led you to set your goal in the first place. Change is exciting — we’d all be very bored without it.
Good luck in reaching your goals!
40. The underlin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ed word “drive” in the first paragraph refers to ______.
A. the wish to achieve a goal
B. the need to have great energy
C. the pressure to drive fast
D. the strong energy to drive
41. If a person slips up, the author thinks of it as ______.
A. strange B. natural C. necessary D. wrong
42. What is the advice for staying motivated
A. To set a big goal in the first place.
B. To share a goal with your friend.
C. To divide your goal into small ones.
D. To make a plan for changing your goal.
43. The passage is mainly about how to ______.
A. help your friend succeed at last
B. set a big goal and reach it
C. deal with a friend who offers no support
D. keep motivated to achieve your goal
C
Few buildings on ear ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )th can compete with the legendary beauty of the Taj Mahal. Towering over the ancient Indian city of Agra, the Taj Mahal is the grandest monument (纪念碑) to love ever created.
The lovers in this ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) story are the 17th century Indian emperor Shah Jehan and his wife Mumtaz Mahal. She took a leading role in advising him, which is something unusual for a woman to do for a husband who’s an emperor. Over the course of their nineteen-year marriage she gave birth to 14 children. But in 1631 while trying to deliver their fifteenth — she tragically died. He was heartbroken when she died. And after her death, he decided to build the world’s greatest monument ever built, for love.
He ordered the r ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )oyal architects to design the most beautiful building the world had known and decided to name it after his beloved, Mumtaz Mahal. He called on twenty thousand workers and sent many more people to all corners of his country in search of valuable metals and jewels. And after seventeen years of hard work, Shah Jehan’s monument was completed and his beloved empress was moved to her final resting place.
Everything had ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )gone according to plan, but Shah Jehan’s luck was about to change ... In 1658, just four years after the completion of the Taj Mahal, he was thrown out of power. Unfortunately, his son, Aran Azibe imprisoned him, his own father. And he spent the last seven years of his life in prison. And he was allowed to look at the Taj Mahal through a window. His life was in ruins, but when he died his last wish was promised. He was buried beside his beloved wife in the Taj Mahal.
44. The Taj Mahal was built for ______.
A. Mumtaz B. Shah
C. Mumtaz or Shah D. Mumtaz and Shah
45. The Taj Mahal was completed in ______.

B. She gave important advice to her husband.
C. She asked her son to imprison his father.
D. She planned to build the world’s greatest monument.
47. Which of the following is TRUE about Shah Jehan

C. He put his own son into prison.
D. He hoped to be buried together with his wife.

Often considered a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s “The Lost City of the Incas”, Machu Picchu is probably the most familiar symbol of the Inca Empire (印加帝国). It was built around the year 1450, but abandoned (遗弃) a hundred years later, at the time of the Spanish conquest of the Inca Empire. Forgotten for centuries, the site was brought to worldwide attention in 1911 by Hiram Bingham, an American historian. Since then, Machu Picchu has become an important tourist attraction. It was announced a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983. It is also one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. But it has recently come to light that the site may have been discovered and robbed secretly as early as in 1867 by a Ger-man businessman, Augusto Berns.
7,000 feet above ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) sea level and located on a small hilltop between the Andean Mountain Range, the majestic city rises above the Urabamba Valley below. Separated into three areas — farming, urban, and religious (宗教的) — the structures are arranged so that the function (功能) of the buildings matches the form of their surroundings. The agri-cultural terracing and ditches (梯田和沟渠) take advantage of the natural slopes (斜坡); the lower areas contain buildings occupied by farmers and teachers, and the most important religious areas are located at the crest of the hill, over-looking the fresh green Urabamba Valley thousands of feet below.
Hikers, tourists, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) and the early explorers describe similar emotions as they climb their way through the Inca Trail. Many call the experience magical and say the area creates a wonderful green paradise, making it a must for anyone who travels to Peru.
48. Augusto Berns was said to ______.
A. report his find to the government at the first time
B. be the first one who discovered the ruins of Machu Picchu
C. help make Machu Picchu a UNESCO World Heritage Site
D. work together with Bingham on research about Machu Picchu
49. Machu Picchu became an important tourist attraction after ______.
A. Hiram Bingham found the ruins
B. Spanish conquered the Inca Empire
C. it was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site
D. Augusto Berns’s work was known to the public
50. The underlined ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )word “crest” in the second paragraph can be best replaced by ______.
A. bottom B. centre C. valley D. top

Have you eve ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r set a goal for yourself, like getting fit or being picked for a team Like lots of people, maybe you started out doing great, but then lost some of that drive and had trouble getting motivated (激励) again. Everyone struggles with staying motivated and reaching their goals. Just look at how many people go on diets, lose weight, and then gain it back again!
Check in with your goal.
It helps if you writ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e down your small goals in the same way you wrote down your big goal. That way you can follow what you need to do, check off tasks as you finish them, and enjoy knowing that you’re moving toward your big goal. If you’re feeling weak on willpower, you can look at your list to help you change!
Go on with your goal if you slip up (出差错).
If you slip up, don’t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) give up. Forgive yourself and make a plan for getting back on road. Pat yourself on the back for everything you did right. Don’t beat yourself up, no matter how far off track you get. Most people slip up when trying to make a change — it’s a natural part of the process.
Share with a friend.
Another way is having ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) supportive people around you. Having a goal partner can make all the difference in times when you don’t feel motivated. If you’re not getting support from someone when you really need it, you may need to take a break from that friendship and make friends with people who want to help you succeed.
Don’t give up!
Ending an unh ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ealthy behavior or creating a new, exciting one is all about taking responsibility (责任) for our lives. Finding the motivation to do it isn’t easy, but it is always possible. You can stay motivated by writing down your goals, sticking to your plan, and reminding yourself of what led you to set your goal in the first place. Change is exciting — we’d all be very bored without it.
Good luck in reaching your goals!

Often considered a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s “The Lost City of the Incas”, Machu Picchu is probably the most familiar symbol of the Inca Empire (印加帝国). It was built around the year 1450, but abandoned (遗弃) a hundred years later, at the time of the Spanish conquest of the Inca Empire. Forgotten for centuries, the site was brought to worldwide attention in 1911 by Hiram Bingham, an American historian. Since then, Machu Picchu has become an important tourist attraction. It was announced a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983. It is also one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. But it has recently come to light that the site may have been discovered and robbed secretly as early as in 1867 by a Ger-man businessman, Augusto Berns.
7,000 feet above ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) sea level and located on a small hilltop between the Andean Mountain Range, the majestic city rises above the Urabamba Valley below. Separated into three areas — farming, urban, and religious (宗教的) — the structures are arranged so that the function (功能) of the buildings matches the form of their surroundings. The agri-cultural terracing and ditches (梯田和沟渠) take advantage of the natural slopes (斜坡); the lower areas contain buildings occupied by farmers and teachers, and the most important religious areas are located at the crest of the hill, over-looking the fresh green Urabamba Valley thousands of feet below.
Hikers, tourists, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) and the early explorers describe similar emotions as they climb their way through the Inca Trail. Many call the experience magical and say the area creates a wonderful green paradise, making it a must for anyone who travels to Peru.
48. Augusto Berns was said to ______.

Dear Teddy,
I am gl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ad to hear that you will come to China. You’ve told me that you are very interested in ancient Chinese cultural relics, especially the Great Wall. Now, I will give you a brief introduction to the Great Wall. The Great Wall is located in the northern part of China, the length of which is about 6,700 kilometers. In 1987, it was added to the World Heritage list. The Great Wall was originally built in the Qin Dynasty to defend against the attack of the enemies. The Great wall is a wonder that was created by the ancient Chinese working people and it is one of the greatest projects in the history of human beings.
Wish you all the best. Hope to see you soon!
